Welcome to National Drug and Alcohol Facts Week 2024
Today kicks off National Drug and Alcohol Facts Week® (NDAFW)!
Throughout the years, with your help, the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) have shared resources and supported conversations on the science of drug and alcohol use and addiction.
NDAFW participants have promoted youth skill-building and encouraged youth to share their personal motivations for adopting healthy behaviors for mind and body.
New and returning event planners, check out the ideas below for some easy ways to get involved and stay engaged throughout the week.
